I hooked up an optic cable from my new LG TV to my old Onkyo receiver (it does not have HDMI) and I'm not getting any sound. On the receiver, I have 3 optic inputs, 1, 2, and 3 and I'm assuming they mean video 1, 2, and 3. I have tried all 3 and on the TV settings I selected External speaker (optical/HDMI ARC) but did not have any success. Does anyone have any other suggestions? I do have my dishnetwork connected to the TV with an HDMI cable if that makes any difference.

I should mention that the model for the TV is 55LB6300 and the model number for the receiver is HT-R520.

Thank you!
